ARC Titanium. It came on the car when I bought it. Its fairly heavy and helped with the stiff B&M shifter.

It is more purple in real life than in turned out in the pictures.

With all those gauges, you should have gotten a fuel gauge that actually works

I will be purchasing it soon but I want to make sure that I would know how to wire it up, there is somebody on the forum that has and is having trouble wiring it up.

Or I can just go Motec and use their display with it too...now if I can get Steve Kan to come to Alaska...lol..

Hey Rich I think you are better going with spa dual setup gauges, u get 2 gauge in one, and they look good.

oil pressure and water temp... thats all any car needs

might want to get a linear water temp guage if you like to watch bouncing needles

the PFC commander/datalogit is good for garage tuning but not needed for driving to 7eleven

i like the computer in the skyline r34, but seriously not needed

Boosted RX-7's aren't just "any car."

I have three non-OEM gauges: Oil temperature, fuel pressure, and boost. Oil and fuel have a peak hold feature.

For all the others I use PFC commander.

The MoTeC ADL2 I beleive it is called is more intended for circuit use as it is built as a datalogger/display versus just a display. It is also 5,500$ before options.......

While the STACK base model is in the 1,000$~ range.

I have seen also Racepak in person and it looks ok but I wouldn't buy it.

I am waiting on the Defi Sports Meter that will be the bomb! I have heard that prices should be in the 1,200$ range which would be great! For anyone wondering it is the thing that is in the Scoot 4 rotor.

Just saw the Defi DSSC @ 2000 @ Gruppe-S.

I think the 9k turbo unit is probably the best suited for a street driven car.

That with a 2 gauge cluster and a wideband and knock sensor I think is the best setup someone could go with @ the moment.

Where did you get this shift ****? Is it a universal or does it actually screw on? And lastly, do have any problems with grip and heat on hot days?

Beautifl interior btw.

if you don't have a pfc then water temp (any temp gauge). If you do have a pfc then I would recommend Fuel Pressure.

Play enough GT4 and you don't need to.

But on a serious note, just move the bezel to the high point and you're set. All you need to do is glance every now and then. Somwhere on a any kind of straight works with me.

your piano black panels look great. Do you have any more pictures? and how is the paint holding up?

I'm starting to lean back towards ditching the 94 panels and going with my previous plan to go with high gloss epoxy paint.
